Native ClineBot / ClinePass Provider Companion for DeepSeek Harness
⚡ Overview & The Problem
ClinePass (https://cline.bot) is a flat-rate subscription service ($9.99/mo) providing developers with 2–5x higher rate limits across premier open-weights coding and reasoning models through a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint (https://api.cline.bot/api/v1).
Integrating ClinePass into DeepSeek Harness (DSH) natively poses key challenges:
- No
/v1/modelsDiscovery:GET /v1/modelsonapi.cline.botreturns404 Not Found. Dynamic discovery fails silently or leaves the provider with 0 models. - Model Identifier Formats: Models require the specific prefix
cline-pass/(e.g.cline-pass/deepseek-v4-flash,cline-pass/kimi-k3). - Quota Tracking: Rolling 5-hour and weekly limits need clear in-browser visualization.
- Credential Security: Storing API keys directly in plain settings is insecure.
@goodandready/dsh-clinebot provides a complete solution:
- 🖥️ Dedicated Settings Page: Full-width page in DSH Settings (
Settings → ClineBot). - 🔄 Dynamic Subscription Model Sync: Automatically pulls real models included in your ClinePass plan directly from
GET /api/v1/users/me/planwith one-click DSH provider sync. - ⚠️ Quota Exhaustion Alerts: Real-time visual warning banners when 5-hour rolling limit reaches 80% (warning) and 95% (exhausted), complete with countdown to reset.
- 📈 Session Metrics Telemetry: Live dashboard tracking request counts, token consumption estimates, latency, and last-request timestamp.
- 📊 Live Quota Dashboard: Visual progress bars for 5-hour rolling limits and weekly windows from the official
GET /users/me/plan/usage-limitsAPI. - 🔑 In-UI Key Storage: Paste your API key directly in the UI; it is saved securely via
ctx.credentials.set()into~/.dsh/.credentials.yaml. - 🎯 Model Picker Management: Granular checkboxes to choose which models appear in the chat picker.
- 💬 Slash-Command
/cline: Check quota, limits, warnings, session metrics, latency, and active model directly from the DSH chat console.

✨ Features & Module Breakdown
lib/models.js: Manages the curated catalog (11 built-in models) and dynamically parses subscription plan models (parsePlanIncludedModels,getAllModels,getDynamicModels).lib/cline-client.js:fetchUsageLimits: queriesGET /users/me/plan/usage-limits,GET /users/me/plan, andGET /users/mewith in-memory caching.sessionStats/recordSessionRequest: in-memory telemetry recording requests count, tokens, latency, and timestamps.saveCredentialKey: writes credentials directly into~/.dsh/.credentials.yaml.smokeChat: tests latency via non-streaming ping and updates session metrics.buildPiAiProvider: builds the DSHllm-pi-aistructure (api: 'openai-completions').
lib/index.js: Cordis service module managing routes (includingPOST /dsh-clinebot/models/sync), quota warnings threshold evaluation, credentials, and registering the/clineslash command.lib/client.js: Full-featured dedicated Settings section (settings.section, order 28) with live quota bars, exhaustion warning banner, session metrics telemetry card, one-click plan sync button, and plugin accordion (settings.plugin.item).
